MTT assays were performed as previously described.11,12 (link) Briefly, cells were seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 5 × 103 cells per well for 24 h, and were the exposed to different concentrations of test compounds. After incubation for 72 h, cells were stained with 25 μL of MTT solution (5 mg mL−1) for 25 min. Finally, the mixture of medium and MTT solution was removed and 75 μL DMSO was added to dissolve formazan crystals. Absorbance of each well was measured at 544 nm (test wavelength) and 690 nm (background) using the Multi-Mode Microplate Reader. Background was subtracted from the absorbance of each well. A549 (human lung cancer) and Huh7 (human hepatoma), and HepG2 (human hepatoma) was purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). SK-BR-3 (human breast cancer) was purchased from the Procell Life Science&Technology Co., Ltd J82 (human bladder cancer cell line) and MB49 (WT) (mouse bladder carcinoma cell line) was obtained from the Merck Millipore. MB49 (STR), the cisplatin resistant subclone of MB49 cells, was established in our lab by weekly exposure to cisplatin.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
